SAD! Gunman kills three police officers
A man dressed in black and armed with a gun attacked police officers in Baton Rouge on Sunday morning, killing three officers and injuring three others.
The suspect in the shooting has been shot by police, and authorities at this time have no information about any additional suspects, police said.
“We do believe the person who shot and killed our officers, he is the person who is shot and killed. We don’t believe we have any shooters holed up,” said Col. Michael D. Edmonson, superintendent of the Louisiana State Police.
This will be the second such attack on police officers in the United States in barely one week.
A man had shot and killed five police officers in Dallas last week. The attacker had been killed with a bomb after issuing threats of causing more damage.
